What impressed you positively?

how excited the students were to talk to us

What impressed you negatively?

Kind of difficult to get to interviews, since they give you directions to get to the correct place, but sometimes the professors/doctors are in other campuses of UCSF so its difficult to get there on your own. However, it was fun to explore on my own, given that they gave such good maps/directions.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

There would not be as much traffic as I thought, so I did not have to leave that early!

What are your general comments?

LOVED IT! Especially the library!
